Asphalt Paving, Concrete Construction, Demolition,Excavation, Grading, Site Preparation. Materials Delivery (Asphalt Millings, Crush Concrete, Gravel, Fill Dirt, Topsoil) Sod installation.
"I would not order anything from Roc Construction LLC. Their work may be of higher caliber (based on reviews likely not) however, if you are seeking quality product delivery Roc Construction LLC IS NOT where you want to order. Received product saturated with earth & fill that was supposed to be something else. Justin will refeence all his experience in construction to justify what he sent you is in fact what you ordered. Unfortunately, that may not be the case. You don't need to be a Civil Engineer (I am a licensed Civil Engineer) to realize you have been given something you didn't order. One Pro is their responsiveness. You will get "a" product in timely fashion however, in my experience, it will not be what you ordered. I recommend ordering from a reputable company with stronger reviews. Please don't lose thousands of dollars like I did."

"I made the unfortunate decision of hiring this company. When the foreman showed up and said he didn't have any plans with him that should have been my first sign. Hopefully this prevents someone from making the 11K mistake I did. CopperFox came back to my property multiple times without resolving the issue. The issue still persists and they actually damaged my property in the process, eventually they just stopped responding. They washed out concrete in my drains, forgot to install the drainage tile, installed the drains in the wrong spot and right next to my foundation, cut the direct TV line, and left the space a mess. If that all wasn't enough, the quality of the work looks really rough. The grate drain wouldn't even drain because they filled it with concrete as well. Even if I had to pay extra to go with a different company, I definitely would have done it."

"Avoid them...their own intall tech walked into my house, looked at the work order and -incredulously- declared to me that 'whoever wrote this up...they were probably new. But this isn't going to solve your problem". That ACTUALLY HAPPENED. Drying Company completely botched the job. They failed to finish the work (offered some laughable small credit instead) and then sought civil remedy for an amount I don't owe. Oh, and they kept the deposit. To summarize: THEY BOTCHED A JOB AND THEN SUED THEIR OWN CUSTOMER. I was going to let sleeping dogs lie but now I'm going to use every consumer digital megaphone available. Just look at the photo!

FAQs for yard drainage projects in Richmond, VA
Absolutely. You can combine drainage installation with many other kinds of projects, such as building a new home, constructing a major addition, or installing an irrigation system. Since excavation is already underway, combining tasks can save you time and money by minimizing labor and material expenses and ensuring seamless integration of multiple systems.
Make sure your contractor is licensed and insured by checking their credentials. Ask for a detailed written estimate outlining every aspect of your drainage system, including how they plan to address specific problem areas in your yard. You can also ask if they have a warranty for their work. Additionally, review feedback from their previous customers to confirm the quality of their work.
It depends on your specific water management needs. A French drain is a passive system that redirects water away from your home without mechanical assistance. A sump pump actively removes water when it reaches a certain level. Often, using both systems together provides the best defense against water intrusion, but a pro can give you specific advice for your home and yard.
Your contractor starts by mapping and digging a trench with at least a 1% slope so water can run off freely. Next, they’ll line the trench with filter fabric, add gravel, and lay the drainpipe to keep water moving. Contractors use specialized equipment to complete each step and ensure compliance with local regulations. This systematic approach creates a robust solution that effectively directs water away from your home.
A proper slope is essential for an effective drainage system installation. Drainage trenches must be engineered with a minimum 1% slope to ensure water flows immediately away from your home without hindrance. Adequate grading increases the system’s capacity to handle heavy water volumes and eliminates pooling. Always verify local guidelines and contact utility services before excavation to ensure safety and compliance.
